The model's call
Pittsburgh Pirates to win
Model confidence 57.3%
Books consensus 57.3%
Identical on purpose: the model applies no adjustment to the books’ de-vigged consensus until a candidate signal proves itself in shadow audit — none has yet. Prediction markets below are a comparison, not an input.

Prediction markets vs the books

Every venue sells the same thing — a dollar if that side wins — at a different price. Implied cost per venue below; amber = the cheapest way to buy that side right now.

Venue San Francisco GiantsPittsburgh Pirates
Books consensus fair, de-vigged 42.7% 57.3%
Best book price incl. vig 43.5% 58.3%
Kalshi contract price 42.7% 57.3%
Polymarket contract price 43.5% 56.5%
Markets average 43.1% 56.9%

Contract prices exclude exchange trading fees (Kalshi ~1–2¢ midrange), which narrow small gaps. A venue meaningfully below the books consensus is either a bargain or an early opinion — the graded record decides which.
